Yang Jian and Sun Wukong

Chapter 127 Extra Story: Yang Erlang

I was born at the turn of spring and summer, which is the season when a hundred flowers bloom and everything grows. Everything is thriving, but my birth did not bring spring-like hope to the whole family.When my mother gave birth to me, my mother had dystocia, and my mana was quickly lost with the blood. Therefore, my father thought that the birth of Yang Jia Erlang was a warning from the heavens, and it was an ominous omen.

The mother-in-law who delivered the baby asked his father to protect the elder and the younger, and the father said without hesitation, "Master Bao."

Fortunately, the mother and child are safe.

My father may think that the phrase "Master Bao" is sorry for me, so he treats me especially well.My mother even spoiled me to the sky.Finally, there are three sisters.We are a family of five, living in Guanjiangkou, squandering the happiness that only appeared in my dreams later.

If there are three children in a family, the eldest is undoubtedly the most valued, and the third is undoubtedly the most favored.I live regardless of my care, full of heartfelt happiness and freedom in life.

I didn't know that I was prepaying the happiness of the second half of my life.

Father is right, I really don't know, if I didn't waste time, our family might be able to escape successfully before the arrival of the heavenly soldiers and generals. My father and elder brother died tragically, and I have an unshirkable responsibility.I don't deny that I have a deep sense of guilt towards them. I think the birth of Yang Jia Erlang was a mistake at all.

After the Yang family was destroyed, I settled my only relative, the third sister, and hid in the mountains to practice alone. Day and night, morning and evening, I slept on the floor exhausted, and after I woke up from a nightmare, I wiped away my tears and continued to practice.

I have lived like this for hundreds of years.

For hundreds of years, no one in the deep mountains and old forests said a word to me. For hundreds of years, I lost my expression and forgot how to communicate with others. For hundreds of years, the only thing I thought about was revenge. I kept dreaming about the whole family being together, and I began to understand that the happiness of a person's life is counted. I used to be too profligate, and I will have no happiness in the days to come.

When I go out to visit my sister occasionally, I would practice smiling at the creek beforehand, making sure that my appearance and clothing are perfect in all aspects before I go out.Because I don't see people often, I have to practice even smiling.

When the road is rough, remembering the teachings of your parents, and to test your own skills, you will often draw your sword to help.That's how my reputation came out.At that time, there was no Battle of the Conferred Gods, no angry murder of the nine sons of the Jade Emperor, and no judiciary deity. At that time, I, Yang Erlang, had the best reputation in the Three Realms. At that time, I was a monster, but was called "Qingyuan Miao" Dao Erlang Yang Jian".

I know a lot of people admire me.But what do other people's so-called admiration have to do with me?

Every time at the celebration banquet after killing evildoers and eradicating violence, the faces of all the people who toasted and sang praises were blurred in my eyes.Even if they respect and love me from the bottom of their hearts, it has nothing to do with me. They simply don't deserve to understand me. There is no one in this world who deserves my extra look.I know this is wrong.Like my practice before, I began to practice the skills of interacting with people.I learned to make facial expressions, such as respectful expressions when I hear praises, polite and corporal expressions when I am courting heroes, and smiling expressions when others say witty words.I am tired of making facial expressions, and returning to the normal state when I practiced alone in the mountains will make people mistakenly think that I am angry or plotting.It was only then that I realized that for Yang Jian, a mask must exist.

No matter how much the monsters admire him, they won't approve of a son of an immortal.I am not like them.I am not the same kind as the gods. The gods just want to catch me and offer it to the Jade Emperor to receive a reward.Although the Three Realms are large, there is no place for me to stay, and there are many living beings, but there is no one for me to walk with.There is no difference between my entry into the world and my seclusion in the mountains. I am just a person wherever I am.There are tens of thousands of people in the world, but I live alone. Even the villains I kill have friends, but I don't.

But I have a sister.

With Yang Chan around, Yang Jian has a reason to live.

I knew that the time had not come, so I dared not go to heaven to save my mother.

I can't bear it.

When I can't help it, I will scratch my palms with a knife, increasing the pain of the body to relieve the pain of the mind.Slashing with a knife, watching the blood flow down and converging into a small pool of blood on the ground, imagining that it is the blood of the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother, the Great Golden Crow, will feel a little more relaxed in my heart.

As time went by, there were many small wounds on my hands that could not heal. When I went to see my sister again, I put on wrist guards to cover them up.

I remember very clearly that it was a sunny day, on the way to visit my third sister, I met a group of monsters bullying a girl.No matter how you look at it, it looks like a game set up to deal with me. I am afraid of who will come in this life. I will jump even if it is a trap. Practice tricks.I rescued the girl, and it turned out that the girl was in the same group as the person who bullied her, and they attacked me together.

There is no doubt that I have won again.

This time the monster's magic power is quite high, although I won, I was also seriously injured.

After killing all the monsters, I was lying on the ground and couldn't get up for a while. I was very tired and wanted to lie there forever.

Use the Wanli sound transmission technique to contact the third sister.

The third sister said, "Second brother, where are you? Why don't you come?"

Hearing the expectant voice of the third sister, I stood up.

Not qualified to continue lying down.

I also have a younger sister.I am not alone.My life has meaning.

I said to myself, Yang Jian, you haven't finished your work, how dare you rest?

So he used the remaining zhenqi to repair the wounds on the surface of his body, so that he looked uninjured, took a few breaths and slowly stood up, straightening his sore waist.

At that time, the sun was rising, and the spring breeze gently brushed the dragon cloak on my back. I clenched the three-pointed and two-edged spear in my hand, raised my breath, and soared into the clouds.

I was flying very low, my meridians were blocked, my whole body was in pain, and I was really powerless to fly higher.

Fortunately, I didn't fly too high, so when I flew over a towering tree, I felt someone watching me, so I couldn't help but look down.

What kind of look is that?

Clear, clean, and pure.

It is as pure as the brightest star in the sky that my mother pointed out to me.

Pure as the eyes of a newborn baby.

Pure as a bright red conscience.

Pure as the last touch of mercy in the world.

Too pure for a man to have.

It was really not a person, but a monkey, swinging on the tree, when it reached the highest point, it looked at me deeply, deeply, with curious and extremely admiring eyes.

Almost instantly, I felt a powerful force surge from the depths of my heart.This force supported me who was seriously injured and tottering, allowing me to fly more stably and faster.Before this, I never expected that an adoring gaze would have such a great influence on me. I thought I didn't care about other people's gazes.

The little monkey, obviously insane and powerless, jumped up and down the tree happily, stretched out its furry hand and waved it non-stop, pointed at me and asked, "Who is he?" After getting the answer, it shouted, "One day I will be more handsome than him!"

I heard.

Shouting so loudly, how could it not be heard?

Mouth slightly upturned.

Before I knew it, I was laughing.

Then I was surprised, how long has it been since I laughed?After wearing a mask for so many years, do you still remember how to smile from the bottom of your heart?

So he felt an inexplicable emotion towards this peculiar monkey, and quietly turned his head to look at him again.

I saw the sky was so blue, the clouds were like pieces of fish scales, inlaid in the sky, in the dense green, a little monkey was swinging around by grabbing the branches, its pure golden hair shone brightly in the morning sun, its tail was wagging, it was so cute His innocent appearance made me want to go down and pinch his face and tug his tail.The hills behind him were undulating, and on the hillsides were blooming red Muxiao flowers, which were as red as fire, like fresh blood.Against the background of red flowers and green trees, his two black eyeballs are brighter than the most beautiful obsidian in the Three Realms, so bright that it is shocking.

I have seen many calculating, deep and complicated eyes, but I have never seen such simple and pure eyes as his.

I've never told anyone how much that look shocked me.

I am not only curious about people who can have such eyes, but also envy and yearning, as well as involuntary liking.

I paid close attention to him quietly and did many things for him.For example, after his friend Tiger Amin died of starvation, he asked the Ksitigarbha to keep him from dying, for example, he cast spells at night to revive Mu Xiaohua, who was scorched by the Bull Demon King, and for example, he secretly helped him when he went down the mountain to learn art and fight with others.

I do this for nothing else but for him to be of use to me in the future.

I never deny that I am a scheming and calculating person.I can't calculate his future fate, but I can calculate that his future achievements will not be inferior to mine. This person will become the key to the victory or defeat in the battle between me and the Jade Emperor that may appear in the future, and I will meet him when he is not mature. He, either kill him to avoid future troubles, or win him over and make him his own.

I have recruited countless talents before. In order to be kind to others, I even set up a situation to put them in danger and then rescue them. I am too good at controlling people's hearts. There are countless ways to make a person obey me. For him, the longer I observe, the more I don't know how to win him over.I actually felt the stimulation of voyeurism and the timid shrinking of closeness.I am unwilling and disdain to use those methods in front of simple monkeys.

I watched him laugh wantonly, completely ignorant of the innocence of the world, and friendly to people with heart and soul, I began to be unable to bear it.

I can't bear to let the last piece of white paper fall into the dirty dye vat of the world.

How ridiculous, Yang Erlang, who is notoriously ruthless, can't bear it.

He is a very childish person, immature and refuses to grow up, so why should I let him grow up?He is not Yang Jian who was forced to grow up, he is a monkey laughing wantonly in the mountains, as a monkey, he should be innocent when he can.Yang Jian has lost his qualifications for innocence, so why let others be like him?Maybe many people will drag the whole world to go to hell with him because of their pain, but obviously I am not included among these people.No matter what happened to me, I hope that there will be fewer tragedies in the world, and I will do my best to achieve this goal.

I didn't show up to meet him, I didn't set up a scheme to make him use me, I didn't let him see the darkness and cruelty of the world, I wanted him to grow naturally, to a height that all living beings in the three realms must look up to.

I look forward to that day coming soon.

From the beginning to the end, he didn't know my existence, from the beginning to the end, he didn't talk to me, from the beginning to the end, he didn't even look in my direction, but I know him so well, he has already become acquainted in my heart Friends - if Yang Jian is also qualified and has time to make friends.

He worshiped Subhuti, who ranks fourth in mana in the Three Realms after me, as his teacher, and followed Master Subhuti to practice in Fangcun Mountain, Lingtai.

He has a name.

Sun Wukong.

At the beginning of Hongmeng, there was no surname, and Wukong was the one who broke the obstinacy.

But Subhuti said, enlightenment comes and goes to seek the way, and the mirror, the water, and the moon will eventually become empty.

He practiced Buddhism, and the Buddhist school talked about "enlightenment", sitting in meditation, meditating in Zen, lying down quietly, peacefully, such a wild monkey who was used to jumping around wildly in the mountains and fields, could not become a Buddha after all.What he realized was only one word: emptiness.Empty is clear, empty is clear and pure, and empty is all dharmas.Only when one reaches the state of emptiness due to one's own simplicity and purity, and nothing is lingering in one's bosom, can one cultivate the true Dao.

There is a kind of person who is born to change the world, that is, Monkey King.

As expected, he did not disappoint me. It didn't take long for him to become the King of Ten Thousand Monsters that shook the Three Realms.

He wears a purple gold crown with phoenix wings on his head, wears a golden armor with locks, walks on cloud shoes with lotus root silk, and holds a golden Ruyi cudgel in his hand. Standing on the highest peak of Huaguo Mountain, he looks at it like an ant. One hundred thousand heavenly soldiers and generals who came to encircle and suppress monsters.Behind him is the blood-stained banner - Monkey King.Two flags were erected in front of the tent of the Chinese army in the distance, and there were fourteen big characters written in fourteen characters: "Just because the heart is high and the land is narrow, I am determined to break the sky." His six sworn brothers stood beside him, and the stars Like a crescent moon, it makes his gaze that looks down on the world even sharper.He slowly glanced around the enemies in front of him, and finally fixed his eyes on me, the eyes clearly contained joy and excitement, he said, Yang Jian, do you know how long my old grandson waited to fight you?

Monkey King, do you know that Yang Jian has waited for many years to meet the majestic Monkey King at this moment?

Monkey King, there are too many things you don't know.

You don't know that I was awake when you secretly touched my hand in Wangjiacun.If you don't think about it, with my vigilance, how could I really sleep so peacefully?How can your sleep aid have such a great effect?Fortunately, you are still complacent after touching my hand, and you feel that you have taken advantage of it.There have been times when I couldn't help but want to beat you up because you look so smug.

You don't know how I feel when you ask me why I have so many bruises on my hands.So many people have seen my hand, you are the only one who will ask.Once you grabbed my hand and carefully counted the number of scars on it. I looked at the top of your head and secretly made up my mind. I vowed to grab the person who counted my scars with all my strength and make him stay with me forever.

You don't know how my hair turns white one by one.Day and night thinking about the way to rescue you is really a very laborious thing.I have thought of many ways, including leading troops to forcibly break into the Five Elements Mountain, but later I felt that I should not act too hastily. At the beginning, I failed to rescue my mother and my mother died. I will never allow the slightest mistake in rescuing you from the Five Elements Mountain. Even if there is even a chance of failure, I can't let you take the risk.Ksitigarbha didn't refine the elixir to resist the talisman, and the [-] grass-headed gods couldn't resist the severe pain when the talisman broke out, so I couldn't act without authorization.I endured not saving you just like I endured not saving my mother. In the process of endurance, not only my hands were tortured, my body was deteriorating, and you, who cared about my physical condition, were no longer there.

You don't know that I went to see you when you were crushed on the Five Elements Mountain.It's a pity that the Tathagata's restriction cannot be broken, and there is no chance to see it in the end.I figured it out later, the Tathagata must have known that there was a gate of life in the Eight Diagrams Furnace, and also expected that I would go to Wuxing Mountain. Break through his defensive array once.Every time I failed, it made the mountain of Wuxing Mountain a little heavier, so I didn't dare to go again later.

You don't know that when I saw you who forgot everything during the Westward Journey, I thought of giving up for a moment.Is not forgotten to be happy?For you, what is the best?The sad thing is that you forget, but I remember, and I will always remember.I can't decide your fate for you, I finally restored your memory.Yang Jian is paranoid, and he will never let go of what he believes in. Whatever he wants, he will get it at any price. Since I believe in you, nothing will shake my determination.You gouged out your eyes at the Demon Slaying Stage, and I will give you back your eyes. If you want to be free and not be bound by gods and Buddhas, I will help you fulfill your wish. No matter what, I will always be the same to you.

You don't know that after Sanmei became estranged from me, the reason for my life became you.I personally pressed the third sister to Huashan to endure the disaster of imprisonment. With the temperament of the third sister, I will never truly forgive me. You and I still have hope of repairing it, but the third sister is absolutely impossible.I pushed away my only family member with my own hands, and I only have you left. You replaced my third sister and became the meaning of my existence. Whenever I encounter difficulties and sufferings in the days to come, thinking of you will regain the strength to endure.

But you are not the whole of my life.

If I only cared about being in love with you every day and didn't think about anything else, then I wouldn't be Yang Jian. You would despise me like that, right?

I have always had a wish or a luxury.I want to fight a battle to reshape the order of the Three Realms.

Master once asked me whether the realization of ideals is still meaningful if the realization of ideals is at the cost of life.

Yes, Wukong, the point is that you will be happy.

What is the reason for this war of gods and monsters?For those who died tragically in the Yang family, for the gods who were killed by the rotten rules of heaven, for justice, for freedom, for the common people, for myself, and more importantly, for you, Monkey King.

I burned Huaguoshan, you can't forget this incident, this incident is a thorn between us, and the battle between gods and demons is an opportunity to pull out this thorn.

To fight I have to win.

Whatever it takes, it must be won.

If we don't fight this battle, you and I will fight to the death immediately, then my end will be death.After fighting this battle, my ending is still death, but the premise is that the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother die together and the Tathagata loses the power of Buddha. You, become the final winner.The dead are happy, and the living are unlucky. You refused to give me this happiness in the mysterious mirror, but you didn't know what I, Yang Jian, wanted to do. Who could stop it?

I have fulfilled my ideal with the end of my life.

You may not be happy.

I certainly wouldn't do it if there was another way.

During the hundreds of years of God and Demon Wars, you and I love each other on the surface, but I know in my heart that you hate me all the time. The better you treat me, the more self-blame and guilt you will have.If I want there to be no barrier between you and me, I must use my death to dilute your hatred for me.Nothing is precious until it is lost. If I die, you will leave behind the hatred for me, leaving only nostalgia and love, and the thorns between us will be uprooted.

Assuming I don't do this, we maintain the superficial love, and all the conflicts will break out on the day the God-Monster War ends.

The Bull Demon King will be the first to attack, and the former Huaguo Mountain Department that followed you through life and death will kill me, what will you do then?

I will never let Sun Wukong fall into such a dilemma in my lifetime.

You are the Monkey King who refuses to grow up. You don’t need to think about our future after the God-Monster War. Let me think about it and arrange everything for you.

I thought about it for a long time, but I didn't think of a way to get the best of both worlds, so I could only choose to do this.

You have to lose to gain.You can only win if you lose me.Moreover, if your determination is firm enough, and your obsession with me is as deep as I am with you, you will follow me to the fourth realm, and you will not lose me.Then we can not only win the war between gods and demons, but also be together without barriers, killing two birds with one stone.

I am a gambler.

What I'm betting on this time is not only my life, but also yours.

I know you are really sad this time.

In the No.19 Wraith Hell of the underworld, I heard clearly what you said to me while holding me. At that time, I fell into a coma, but my mind was clear and I could perceive the outside world.

"Are you tired? Go to sleep when you're tired. The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother died. You avenged your family. Are you happy?"

I am very tired, I have been tired all the time, every day I live, the burden on my shoulders has to be carried all day, living is the most tiring thing for me.

"Now I'm so happy, you're so good, you won't think about tricks, you won't be disobedient, I can do whatever I want."

Wukong, did I give you a feeling of being out of control?I didn't even know that my calculations would hurt you so deeply. The last thing I wanted to do was to play tricks on you.

"After the great chaos, there will be great order. After this battle, the Three Realms will be able to maintain stability for at least tens of thousands of years. From then on, all gods, demons, humans and ghosts will be free and peaceful. You can rest assured."

Of course I am very reassuring about the Three Realms, I am not reassuring about you, how will you spend your days without me?When will you understand that I went to the fourth realm instead of being lost?

"When I first met you, I was a little monkey who couldn't spell, and I didn't know what a fairy was... There is one thing I never told you, I fell in love with you at first sight."

Monkey King, you silly monkey.You still don't know that the time you saw me, I saw you too.My Taoism has been completed, and my senses are sensitive. Could it be that I can't detect the gaze of a little mountain monkey?Why don't you know that I looked back at you after I flew over?Have you never noticed that there is a person following you behind you?Or should I blame my invisibility technique for being too good?

Sun Wukong, I admit all the crimes you accuse me of. Self-righteousness, using all means to achieve your goals, using all means to achieve your goals, being smart and arranging a good ending for everyone, completely disregarding your mood and wishes, being vicious and cruel to you, extremely selfish, I admit these , but Wukong please remember that I have never completely given up my feelings for you for a moment.I did the calculations, I never did the calculations for myself, all the calculations were for us to be together.So even if time goes back, Yang Jian will still do this, with a clear conscience.

How I wanted to tell you all this before going to the fourth level.

I didn't say until my death that I went to the fourth realm and I firmly believe that you will come. This is the last step of my whole plan.

The sentence I didn't finish was "You must remember, I will wait for you."

I am a person who keeps promises. When I say wait for you, I really wait.

If you don't come for a day, wait for you for a day, don't come for a year, wait for you for a year, don't come for a lifetime, wait for you for a lifetime, if you don't come forever, it's nothing, just wait.At the foot of Wuxing Mountain, you used to wait for me to kill you for 500 years, but now I wait for you to come to me with "eternal" time.I don't want to be with you, I just want to see you as happy as you were in Huaguo Mountain before learning magic, then I don't want anything else.Please let me see you laughing heartily again, I erased your innocence with my own hands, I feel guilty for this, every moment.

When I think about it, my life seems like a failure.His family was destroyed when he was young, and his mother died after he became an artist. He thought that being a judicial god could save the common people, but he only got the name of sinister and vicious. He cultivated Chen Xiang to save his mother and change the rules of heaven, but he couldn't eradicate the cancer in the three realms. He persuaded the Tathagata to start his journey to the West In the chess game, he still failed every step of the way, took the lead to fight against the sky, and then turned his back on the battlefield, and finally died with the enemy together.I'm not perfect in so many things, but I still consider my life to be a successful one.

There are countless reasons for failure, and there is only one reason for success—Monkey King.

I got to know Sun Wukong.

All the hardships in the first half of my life were to make me grow into a better person, so good that I could match Monkey King.

All the indifference and conceit in the first half of life was to reject irrelevant people and welcome the feelings that belong to us in the end.

All the pain in the first half of my life was for me to understand what happiness is after meeting you. Even if this happiness is inevitably mixed with pain, I am willing to enjoy it.

In my life, Yang Jian, I don’t have much happiness to recall. I still remember that early spring, when the sun was singing like a song, and the mountains were full of greenery, a monkey raised its tail and pointed to the sky and shouted: “One day I will be more handsome than him!” When I met you for the first time, I have seen it for thousands of years, and only then do I know what it is.

The river will dry up, the world will be destroyed, but the only thing that is love, life and death go hand in hand, never cut off.

Wukong, in order to be able to wait until the day of reunion, Yang Jian must use all his efforts and means in the fourth realm to achieve good health.

If you are accompanied by the king, you will share the joys and sorrows, and there will be no substitutes, and you will never leave and never forget.

I'm leaving, before I say goodbye, I will welcome you when you come.

Be there or be square.

Others laugh at me too crazy, I laugh at others and can't see through.
